WHAT SKILARENCE IS AND WHAT IT IS USED FOR
WHAT SKILARENCE IS
Skilarence is a medicine that contains the active substance dimethyl
fumarate. Dimethyl fumarate
works on cells of the immune system (the body's natural defences). It
changes the activity of the
immune system by reducing the production of certain substances
involved in causing psoriasis.
WHAT SKILARENCE IS USED FOR
Skilarence tablets are used to treat moderate to severe plaque
psoriasis in adults. Psoriasis is a disease
causing thickened, inflamed, red areas on the skin, often covered by
silvery scales.
Response to Skilarence can be generally seen as early as week 3 and
improves over time. Experience
with related products containing dimethyl fumarate shows treatment
benefit for at least up to
24 months.
